That's unfortunate, because we don't live in a world of black and white. Everything is a shade of gray, and as such it's something people should become accustomed to.

If Iraq had ANY weapons that could reach the US, I'd have considered them a threat. If there was any verifiable evidence that they were seeking out any such weapons, I'd probably consider them a threat. If they had the ability to seriously put our allies in danger, I'd have considered them a threat. None of these were met, therefore Iraq was not a threat.

Every time you explain why you thought Iraq was a threat, you use incorrect information. How, now knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that Iraq had no WMDs and that they weren't even seeking out WMDs, was Iraq a threat?
